If you are telling me you want to be an anti alcohol warrior as well as an anti drug addiction anti marijuana warrior then go for it.

But IMO don't point to one piece of sh!t to try and pass another big piece of sh!t known to gravitate to even higher drug use.

My point about major over use of pot is that is only IMO justified for people with REAL highly chronic conditions like cancer. The rest using it are all just are recreational drug users as are those claiming a back ache and so forth to get pot when they could use ibuprofen and so forth.
Much of this is recreational drug addiction getting on the back of things needed for the terminally ill. Pathetic IMO!

I’m telling you I’m against drug abuse but forced prohibition will NOT stop or help the issue.

The only way to reduce abuse and addiction is an overall spiritual and educational improvement in our society so few people feel the need to abuse drugs.

Prohibition is not helping us achieve this since the control required and inevitable corruption always results in spiritual decay. Few people are caught in the drug dragnet since there is no victim so there will never be enough control to reduce drug abuse without extreme surveillance of ALL people.

Even if you achieve a 100% police state it still won’t be enough. Think: even in prisons people routinely use any drugs they want! The ONLY difference is the higher price and who they pay.

This mentality of trying to control abuse by force has created a militarized police state under the guise of imprisoning mentally ill boogiemen (jumkies!) and playing a wack-a-mole arms race with endless dealers.
